I rented a server in Canada and mirrored the Wikileaks files onto it a couple of years ago, when the USA threatened them to be shut down. I never had clicks on the phone line and never got any problems.
Even Visa didn't cancel my credit cards for it:)

Count me in, one of the very first distributions with zfsonlinux support. Guess what, it is still running after ~1 years updating with the original installation but top versions. Stable and never had a problem, which wasn't hardware related. Even migrated the pools from FreeBSD, which was running before on that box, without data loss.

Since it already uses Gentoo Portage, at least the development version ChromiumOS, maybe they left the toolchain and it is possible to compile/add some more applications than a browser, media player and file manager by adding some overlay?

Your list is not accurate, e.g. 5 is Windows 7 Home Premium and not Win8, this one is also increasing in sales. Maybe the list got updated in the meantime?
There is no mention if they implement the feature to disable secure boot, as I understand to get the sticker from MS they have to. Also they said, the devices are only locked up on ARM processors to run Win8 and it can be disabled for x86 CPUs.
This would be a no go for me, I am sometimes willing to pay the MS tax but not if it renders the hardware unuseable with other software.

I meant that more related to the government knowing how many searches one did, which is a joke compared to other countries. I was once unemployed for three weeks in Ireland, went to the office, filled in a form and got a check end of each week. No questions asked to a maximum of six months, I think. This is a model I would support, no stress and within six months people should be able to find another job.

in Germany jobless people have to report any application for a job to the agency and they have to apply for a certain amount of jobs per month or they get no welfare. Still people say it is not enough and unemployed people should be a workforce of the government to clean parks etc. -.-
